Thank you for hanging out with me. As a non-drinker/smoker, I feel like when I blog, I’m hanging out in a bar, so to speak – exchanging words and utter nonsense. In virtual communities, you can be multiple folk or simply let your hair down and be yourself. I like that. I don’t care how many folk you are ’cause it’s so unlikely we’ll ever meet anyhow. And if we did meet, I wouldn’t be mad ’cause you said you’re an airplane pilot when you really drive a taxi. It’s not like I can cast stones. Well, I could but there’s no long term glory in that.

If I were gonna be on the deceptive side, I’d more than likely tell you I was a naturopath doctor or something of that nature. Like, I could find so many cures to stuff with Google and you’d never know. Matter of fact, I have a cure for toothaches. I have a cure for a number of ailments, actually. I keep a stash of books around here, so I really could help you if need be. I know. My background’s in art but I have to know a lot about a lotta things as an artist. If you’re not an artist, you can’t possibly understand the intensity of what I do…which is why…I’m applying to medical school. It would behoove you to make an appointment with me once I set up my practice so I can practice on you.

In the meantime, I’m gonna keep shop here on this blog, experimenting with words, art and whatever moves me. Thank you again for hanging out and being you or whoever you choose to be.

  1. I don’t know as I would have thought of the bar analogy. More like sitting around the kitchen table, but that may have a lot to do with the blogs I choose to read. Yours is always a good time.

    • Typically, you know who’s hanging out in your kitchen but not so at a bar. Like, you just never know who will drop in and comment. Know what I mean? Glad you enjoy the exchange.

  2. Hey…I’m not really an old retired white man who is grumpy and pissed off all the time about wasting thirty years of my life as a Probation Officer who rarely has sex anymore. I’m young, and if you ever saw me in your local bar, you’r wanna hook-up with me, at least for a one night stand. 🙂

  3. I think of it as being able to try on multiple personalities in a test drive fashion. Good thing I do not have time to drive something I will never buy.

    • Thank you, Monica. Although, I must say I’ve had to tone it way down. Bea is a church-going woman, so she’s good to go. She’s always ready to go, when I think about it.

    • You broke your whole hand? My goodness! That feels awful from this end even. I tell you what though, you’re gonna need to repair your bones with some raw carrot juice but anything else, you’re gonna need a cast. Course you may have one by now. I perhaps could’ve put the cast on you after a little research on the web. Call me next time.
